DIFFERENT BLOGS, DIFFERENT PEOPLE AND DIFFERENT THOUGHTS

There are so many different blogs in New Albany. If I were a smarter blog administrator I would take the time and figure out how to put the links to each on here. Does that make me a bad blog administrator? Nah. To me, if you want to link to the other blogs, we have a local blog where you may link to any other blog (except maybe a couple).

This other blog also has links to various governmental offices and other points of interest that particular blog administrator "likes". We all have our likes, dislikes and points of view others may not care for and some may even detest (though that's an awfully strong word - but it's true).

We appreciate your readership. We will keep on keeping on just being a simple kind of blog.

A little housekeeping is in order for us after publishing the various executive orders and contracts. We'll have more City documents ready for a read in the next few weeks. In the meantime, we have some catching up to do with readers who have submitted their thoughts and/or opinions.

Yeah Quit wishing every one a happy easter. You should be honest and wish everyone a Happy Commerical Easter. Thats all holidays are any more is how much money can we make during a Holiday.Everyone buys stupid eggs. And even worse. You now buy plastic eggs and after easter is over you throw them in the trash to add more garbage to the local landfill. Also you fill them with candy which rots your kids teeth and then you have to take them to the dentist to have cavities put in. And then we are back to square one. How much money did that cost you ?????? HAPPY COMMERCIAL EASTER EVERYONE !!!!!!!

The only thing worth anything on NAC is the links. I don't read his garbage. Half the links and blogs on there are no longer up todate. That's how he gets his numbers. Can't even imagine how many times KT is read and he doesn't have a link for FOS or KT.

It's not that we're wishing people a commercial holiday. Easter is a time for families to reflect on the tremendous gift God gave us when he sent his son to give up the ultimate sacrifice on our behalf.

If you think the secular world's commercialism is what we're celebrating when we go to church and acknowledge and pray in thanksgiving for this huge and loving gift, then you're missing the point.

Glad to see all of the good "Christians" on here being mean and rude. How embarrassing! 10:47 must be crazy. What issue is even being addressed? There is no point other than mean and ignorant anonymous people saying things that don't even make sense.

5:35, don't judge all Christians by the ones who write stuff that isn't nice. Most of us are pretty nice most of the time. Most of us are also susceptible to falling from time to time, and some are unaware of what our sins may be. Also, just because we're Christians doesn't mean we don't have some honest opinions that are occasionally negative in nature. Sometimes, the truth is bad.

That comment is really uncalled for, 6:49. I don't know who in the world you're talking about, but it's ridiculous to keep talking about this person. If he lives in Florida, he's got nothing to do with here. What's your deal?

It appears that the 6:49 post has been removed for bad language, but he or she was obviously referring to Tiny Tim Thumb, the diminutive dimwit who was run out of town on a rail. We all know that he lurks on this blog. Hi Timmy!

I went in open minded to read the post at FOS. I come out agreeing with whoever said Erik is racist. Keep in mind, racist people most times don't know they are, and it's not an intentional mean spirited motivation most of the time. Obama was attempting to show compassion and empathy and did not speak to the legal system when he said that if he had a son, he would look like Trayvon- he was speaking to all of those that have suffered an injustice such as this.

Spoken like a true AMERICAN. Thank you Prof. Erik you are a true leader. Why isn't Obama angry about that six-year-old girl who was killed on her steps last weekend in a cross fire when two gang members in Chicago start shooting at each other? Why is there NO outrage about that? Could that had been Obama's daughter?Sharpton and Jackson only show up when there is a chance to get on the camara and spew their hate.We never think of 'racial discrimination' when it's a black on white event, do we President Obama? Never have I witnessed a plainer case of race pimping.

There can no longer be any dowt, that Obama is trying to spark civil unrest as a distraction from the criminal looting the Banksters are carrying out. Divide and conquer is the oldest trick in the book, stir the people up against one another then pose as the savior that keeps the peace!Obama is the racist. His "pastor" that he sat for 20 years was a racist hated whites, Obama can't fool all the people any more. Let the black Panthers start a war they will lose, there is more of us tha there are of them. Face facts blacks are 12 percent of the population, try and win that one.It looks like to me Obama is trying to start a race war. All of this can be used to distract people from Obama's horrible record as president. If things get bad enough, it could be used to bring on martial law and a way to (try) to take our guns.

I heard a tape of Malikl Zula Shabazz on TV last night this is what he said:

I say to everyonem I'm comin out of the gate my prize right now this evening to be the bountym dead or alive for George Zimmerman. You feel me? The thing that's about to happen these honkies, these crackers, these pigs, these people, these motherf*ers it has been long over due.My question is where is Atty. General Holder an President Obama? National Guard's should be surrounding that town and their cuurt house.

Are the welfare recipients fooled into thinking that their checks "come from Obama?" Everyone is losing homes, businesses, college funds for their children, they have to cut back on food items themselves - but they are going to go on paying for someone else while they, themselves, the one paying for the welfare checks, suffer - are these people deluded?

If they are betting on getting food stamps and welfare checks when others are tightening their belts, I'm betting, they are all betting WRONG!!!!

Hatred! Racism, this is why this crap is going on. Black, Hispanic, Native American - hey. After reading the remarks Alan West made (freshman politician in FL) stating the Dems in Washington are all Communist. Flashbacks to McCarthy's era. What the hell?

The Republican philosophy these past few years seem to suggest their 4GL is God, Guns, Gynecology, and Greed. AND I DON'T HAVE NO BLOG BUT AM SPEAKING HOW I FEEL. PFFTTTTT!

Democrats turn a blind eye on anything Obama does. Obama is a poor president, every thinking person knows it, and hopefully everyone will vote for anyone but Obama on election day. That's all I've got to say.

I thought Gahn was smarter than this. Being on the other side for two terms as Council has not proved him any justice.tour not out here for my best interest your out here for yours. Cut throat, power hungry and should I go on.It's going to be a long 3 and half years. Oh by the way his son in law is not spending very much time dealing with flood control. You got Duggins and Robinson on there throne with the little boys.

As if anyone will listen to what is posted on this blog after all of the racist remarks. Total ignorance. I have to laugh at the hatred coming from all of the religious zealots on here. I am sure your church congregations would be proud.

Roger, you're so focused on religion and trying to prove it's rife with bad guys, you fail to observe that religious comments are approximately 1/15th of the comments on here. Yet you're still talking about it.

Yes, I see that Baylor is ruminating about life. He should. He's wasted enough of it. Now, he suddenly asks if he should give it up? Why give up now? You've burned so many bridges with all your hate, Baylor, why not just stay evil? I'm not with that person who keeps praying for you. I don't care what happens to you. Going away would be nice, but I know it won't ever happen.

7:03, your post is disturbing on several levels. Either A, you're friends with him and saw his post, or B, you're a total creep and stalking him. If A, you're about the jerkiest friend one can imagine, reading his facebook and then posting here. If you're B, you're obsessed and need to get help.

I don't think anyone's stalking Baylor. Baylor puts all kinds of crap out hoping that everyone in the planet will read it, and it looks to me like anyone could read his post because I looked it up and read it too. Stalking him? Hardly. People talk about what he writes all the time. This time, I went to see what's on there myself. No stalking doing.

Obsessed? No. As I said, Baylor puts his tripe out there for all to read. He WANTS us to comment on it. I agree with 7:49, that he is delighted, but disagree with 5:20. Baylor is out there for us all to have look at. I mostly ignore him, but found that post pretty darned easily.

Well, you come back because it gives you some kind of sick need to find someone to pick on. You're angry, mean-spirited, ignorant, pompous, bellicose, and HIGHLY TOXIC.

Why don't you just stop coming back? See if you can do it.

I, for one, am embarrassed that Roger considers himself a part of the Democratic Party. I, for one, think it's hilarious how many people use Roger for their own climb up to power. I, for one, am sick of Roger and stand fully behind 7:03 and 10:51. I back what they said 100 percent.

How in the world you got that I thought you were racist because of Roger is beyond me, but, ok. That only furthers my case that you're obsessed and base your entire life around the man.

No, the words people use here against others...the above discussion about Obama and the Martin case...that's why most posters here are racist, uneducated, and cruel.

If wanting people to not use personal insults (in other posts' comments I have seen weight comments, sexuality comments) in their discussions, and if supporting my president and wanting him to succeed, and if wanting a community worth living is toxic, then yeah, I guess I am.

Sounds like you think their racist because of Roger too. Say waht you mean for crying out loud. I believe you started out calling that guy who talked about Roger's ruinating a "snake." If you go around saying things like that to some comment that looks honest enough to me and is not that bad either, than your surly toxic.

I heard this morning the Gahan has been either one hour late to board meeting or didn't even bother to show. Be sure and mail your tax papers today so Obama can waste more of our tax dollars on solar ideas.

Why are the people that was backing winningham meeting with Jonathon George. I know mayor Gahan is trying o get back in with him. Mayor you could not get anyone elected right now if you tried. Not one person outside your administration even talks good about you. Please Jonathon stay away from these cronies. I want to vote for you!!!But I want you to get elected without these back stabbing people in this town. They know who I am talking about.VOTE JOHNATHON GEORGE

OMG! I got on here ONE time. One time only and I get called creep, jerk, stalker and snake. Really?

You know, I went home to my mom's house one day after a pretty grueling test, and my stupid little brother was reading all this crap about Baylor on FB and that blog of his and on Twitter and I don't know what all. So, then he gets on this blog and people were on here talking about stupid Baylor.

OK, so I wrote Yes, I see that Baylor is ruminating about life. He should. He's wasted enough of it. Now, he suddenly asks if he should give it up? Why give up now? You've burned so many bridges with all your hate, Baylor, why not just stay evil? I'm not with that person who keeps praying for you. I don't care what happens to you. Going away would be nice, but I know it won't ever happen.

I wasn't stalking Baylor. I'm not his FB friend and I doubt if he even knows me at all. I wouldn't be able to pick him up out of a line-up. But listening to my brother go on and on about how stupid he is made me kind of snap. I mean, it's kind of weird that this sort of stuff is what people read all the time. It's just weird. I guess Baylor was some kind of hippie in the 60s? That's what he acts like. He also seems to think that the entire world cares about what he thinks about everything. And he's very mean when he writes about people. My mom thinks he's a jerk. I've heard many people say that.

So, I wrote a comment. You might write me off as a stupid kid, but I have thoughts and ideas too. I spend just about every weekday at IUS and then I come to my mom's to see that my brother is reading Baylor's stupid stuff.

Why don't you people be decent? I'll probably go to hell for saying I'm not praying about Baylor, but I can't. He's been too mean about people I like. Anyway, I don't go to church much. I doubt I have the inside track on helping people by praying. The last time I saw my brother on here, there were people talking about praying for Baylor.

It's a waste of time. He wants to be evil.

I'm turning this back over to my brother and heading back to my place. I'm gone. Say all the insults you want. Whatever.

A student, huh? That post was probably made by a 60 year old housewife. Until someone uses his or her actual name, I don't believe that anyone is what they claim to be on this blog. This is whether they claim to be a student, a lawyer, a courthouse worker, a college professor of political science, or whatever. I just don't buy the anonymous crap.

Post a new story. This Baylor guy has taken over this blog. There has to be more excitiing things to discuss other than this Baylor person. Post a new story. I read in the paper the other day that the naacp was getting their 15 minutes of whining about the City and it's hiring practices. How did these people in the naacp get their job? Did they pass a test or was that to hard? Were they just given the job because they could yell louder than the other people applying? I get sick of hearing these people cry and complain about something they want to impose on city government. Go cry somewhere else

NAACP what a joke, they have Gahan by the balls surprised they havent staged a Travon Martin vigil downtown yet or gotten gahan to submit a mayoral proclamation that the city supports a bounty on Zimmerman, new albany needs a few more neighborhood watchdogs because the mayor's so called cops arent getting the job done, seen the projects lately?

Well we have mother, daughter back in the controllers office again. All we have our relatives in that building. Also Kay's friend Pat is back at front desk three days a week these our people who were included in the executive order by Doug.This mayor said change I wish I could take his hand and walk him right out of that building and his career would be over.

OK, dummys. Baylor is 62. That would mean he was born in 1950. So, the hippies was in the 60's. That would make him a teenager in the 60's when he could have been a hippie. At 62, he should be more successful than he is. I would suggest he ruminate about that. What is the purpose of all the mean comments he makes about people? At 62, he ought to slow down on that and start praying for himself.

Look at what Obama has done. He can't run on his record. What has he done for America? The only thing he's done, he's had a Democrat house and senate and he's spent 3 years getting obamacare through and the supreme court is going to kick it out. He has put us %5 million in debt. He gets involved in things that is none of his business as president. He has pissed away money on green crap. He blames everything on Bush. I mean, he and his cronies don't know what their doing. That's the way liberals are. Good Democrats aren't like that.

You can read and stalk Rog's Facebook page, just not the part where his publicly printed birthdate clearly puts him at 51 at the present time. I'd say some of you are in need of math tutor, but you're opposed to education, right?

I thought this Roger fellow was 52 not 62. And why are you raising so much hell about Obama ? George Bush Jr. was the worst president in americam history. And we had 8 yrs of him. And you know the old saying. When a person in a position of power makes a desision. Only 50% of the people are happy. This blog must have the 50% who are not happy. Get over it. Things will get better. They always do. Look at government in Ky. Calling a special session to get Overtime pay. 60 days is enough time to get the work done that is needed. But they screw around over there and call a special session to cost the taxpayers 320,000 a week in overtime costs. Now that is a waste. I was glad to see Bill Lamb on fox 41 bring that out. Good for him

I see that Roger has featured his friend Amy on his dumb blog. That woman is crazy. Can't she SEE that we have more kids in need of shelter and help in New Albany than up the hill? Can't she imagine that, by sheer density of population, we might have more issues down here, not to mention all the public housing we've got in New Albany.

That woman is a train wreck.

OK, Amy, come on here and defend Baylor and yourself. Two lovebirds tied together by being liberal PERgressives.

Also, I want to know where Roger A. Baylor gets off talking about Vicki Denhart as though she's a cross dresser. He says these things as though they're fact. By his simply mentioning it as though it's fact, he assumes readers will take it as fact.

THIS is how he communicates. If he were a REASONABLE and RESPONSIBLE individual, he would not use this method of what people generally refer to as SPIN. He counts on the ignorant to buy it hook, line, and sinker.

Now, once again, he's picking on a girl. How dare he call someone who has worked herself to the bone a cross dresser? How dare he constantly put down anyone, but especially this friend of New Albany. Get a grip on yourself and behave, Roger.

You all should change this blog to kitchen bitchin issues. i think after your 1,157th time of bashing this Roger Baylor person. No wait do it 3 more times and make it an even 1,160. GOOD LORD 5:00 If you want to be more aware of things in New Albany then quit bashing this Baylor person and focus on the Murder that happened by University Woods earlier this evening. So put that in your pipe and smoke it.

When will everyone realize it is Roger,Mark,Jeff and the rest of his same old people posting on here quit following for it.These people don't deserve your breath. Shut this talk and shut them down for good Rog is almost there anyway .

I read in the paper that the current Fire Chief stated facts on the hiring process for the city after a previous fire chief had lied about them in an older article when the naacp whined about how the city hiring practices are being done wrong. It's a shame that people who have nothing to do with current affairs for the city can't leave well enough alone. Oh but wait. Isn't the old fire chief's family involved with the naacp ???????? Well imagine that. Using his old position to try and cause disarray with the current administration. The paper said the old fire chief's name was toran. I asked around about him and did'nt hear anything good from people who are on the fire departmant now. They said he sit behind a desk for 30 years and claimed to be a firefighter. Sounds like a pencil pusher. Naacp take a hike and leave this city.

As far as I'm concerned, there's plenty of reasons why it's a shame this blog can't demand that Baylor leave, with a police escort, and leave him to keep on whining about it YEARS later by writing about it in lengthy "articles." More's the pity.

Wondered what the above comment was about. It took me awhile, but I found out what.

Baylor is whining like a beaten cur about an incident from years ago.

It's amazing. If Kerry Stemler, Jerry Finn, Ed Clere, Ron Grooms, Steve Stemler, Vaughn Scott, Vicki Denhart or anyone in 1SI were escorted out of a meeting by police, Baylor would be jumping up and down with JOY. He wouldn't waste five MINUTES before he'd be on his blog, Twitter and God knows where else to pile on the insults. He wouldn't see anything wrong with any of those people being kicked out of a meeting.

It's all about a double standard and Baylor's need to have everything HIS way.

He got kicked out of a festival back in 2003. That's what he's crying about. Bombastic whiner.

I have some Right Guard if that is really the way you feel. I still can't believe i bring up current issues in New Albany and all you people want to do is still bash this Roger Baylor person. Who cares if he got kicked out of a festival back in 2003. What facts do you have to back that up? And again 5:00 talking about things that are going on here in good old New Albany. Right here. Right now you have people wanting to change the hiring practices in New Albany. Wanting people hired who can't pass a standard test. The naacp wants to lower the standards to hire on minorties. And all you people want to talk about is something that happened in 2003. Amazing. I guess you all don't like this Baylor person. He can't be all that is going on in New Albany is he? I'll debate issues about New Albany but every time i bring one up everything always jumps right back to Roger Baylor.

You are talking about the ex chief he must have something to do with the current mayor. Toran was on his transition team so Gahan must think he has some credit. But again Gahan if it's not his idea or his powers look out.

What people on here don't understand Jeff will always have hs few cronies on the council because he uses them like step children. The pawn he puts on others to do his dirty work they just haven't figured it out.

Gonder and Mclaughlin never could make a decision without Carl or Gahan for 4 years. Never came to a meeting I was at prepared enough to make a decision.As far as Mclaughlin he sits on te parks board and doesn't say anything about the dollars before or even try to work anything out until Jeff guides him on it. I go to the parks board meetings and that roger Jeffries is a top employee for our community.

Gahan will veto the parks deal in the coming days. But you give him credit on this when in 8 years of his service he has known about this and never came to the fore front. All Gahan does is threatens people to loose there jobs or to sue. Wants to sue county for parks, 911 funding, keep going Jeff sue ourselves. Your lawyers will give you a piece of the pie.

So you think it is okay that the county does not pay? Really? I thought you all were taxpayer watch dogs. Guess you all live in the county with the others who think NA is not worth anything. Quit griping then if you don't care.

darkie parade at the brewhouse, martin luther baylor and the reverand jessie gahan speaking be sure and bring your job applications city jobs to be handed out, no education or experience required just a lazy the world owes me attitude, bonus points if you drink too much beer and rike a bike there.

Yep 7:57 always goes back to this Baylor person. Post a new story. The puss is oozing from this one. I thought it was pretty lame that the current police Chief blindsided a 40+ yr veteran of the police dept. with walking papers because of a merit system rule saying you can be retired from the police dept. at age 65. They did'nt even give him notice. He had to call someone to come pick him up that day because he had to turn in his car. And the Chief even said in the paper that the administration had discussed all this prior to giving him his walking papers. I also made a couple of calls and found out he is now off duty but still being paid till after the first of next year. Congrats to the officer for his 40+ years of service but shame on the Chief for trearing him like she did.

1:17 he's using up his vacation time with full pay up until June 11, 2012. He had 3 DWI. He's pist because in his divorce papers he has to NOW turn over half his pension. Cry me a river. Don't worry he will sue the city.

well i think if you had to turn over half your pension you would be pist also. How many days did his wife go in to work and put her life on the line. And if it's her fault they got divorced he should'nt have to give her a dime

wow Just read the an 18 yr old kid slammed into a house on slate run rd saturday night. It will be interesting to see how what kind of sentence this kid gets. he was drunk,had pot on him, and injured a passenger in the car.Let's see what Henderson does or if the family makes a campain donation to get him off.

I, for one, am sick and tired of the same old Baylor-Gillenwater-Flunkies crap online. One thing I found out about just today: The POTABLE CURMUDGEON is pouting. I was wondering what "April 21, 11:28 AM" was talking about. Now I get it. Baylor is writing about POUTING. Here a sample:

Talk to NABC that way, and the Curmudgeon will write about it - now, tomorrow, and forever more, until an apology is forthcoming.

OK. So, by use of threats and name calling, Baylor says he's going to keep on writing about Big Red Liquors "until an apology is forthcoming."

Well, we should all be so petty. If we were, Roger, none of us would EVER talk to you, or act civil to you, or continue to help promote your business.

Talking about John Gonder gerrymandering he was a part of it. John not only told coffey what was going on but other council members right before the vote that night. Roger and mark you got sold out I don't care what you say sold out!!!Gonder lied at the council meeting in front of everyone but watch out Gonder you will be confronted again real soon and you won't be able to get out of the box running.

Dan and John Gonder better NOT forget: isn't that and more on the tape Denhart has? I really don't think certain people want Denhart to stand up at council and play the tape she has. Oh that's right didn't now Mayor Gahan, Larry Kochert and others hear their plan in tape? I heard it and them council members better NOT think for one moment she won't make it public either.

Well, great paranoid one, perhaps in your delusional, swill-induced stupor, you can find the tape and put it on your blog. Ever think that it might exist and that it needs to just be put out there so we can all stop hearing about it all the time, like a threat under cloak and dagger? If you're really such a great reporter of "news," then you need to put up, big guy, and stop filling the online world with your pouting.
